Answer:

  • slope -A/B
  • y-intercept C/B

Explanation:

Solve for y and read the answer from the resulting slope-intercept form.

By = C -Ax

y = (-A/B)x +C/B

Compare this to slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b . . . . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope is (-A/B). The y-intercept is C/B.
